NO Match for Harriman/Schmidt

I am left with the same opinion. They are going to end up doing the match once everything is negotiated.

John and Danny are clear that they are the ones who they have to negotiate with now also.

And something tells me a stiff penalty also comes along with the cancelation of contract also if John so happens to violate it.



no - Amendment to the Contract, to avoid Breech, is the agreement b/w both parties signing off.

Of course they are going to play eventually. This is complete lunacy!

sorry for the derail - but Lou Reed just died @ 71

:(

if Lou only had people that knew better than he how he should behave, he might have made it to 72.

RIP Lou

How did he make it to 71?

How is Keith Richards still with us?

Ginger Baker?

Forget all this clean living.
 
As if all the jr players will be viewing the ppv and quit pool because John and Danny are having a dramatic match.

This is ludicrous.

Actually, my son would benefit from this, he already knows not to act like Earl Stickland :smile: , could use a few more examples of what not to do, or on what to do if they can play a match well despite not liking each other.

Honestly, from listening from both John and Danny commentate I never would have taken them to have grating personalities or being unstable and going nuts on people for small things. After getting a very odd PM on here from Danny, I can see what's up with him though.

John are you happy with all this?

Blink once for yes and twice for no.

Dude you have literally been grounded,

You get it; others don't. Thanks for chiming in. :smile:
 
Can Johnny come out and play?

No, you know Johnny has contractual obligations.

Can we come in and watch him try to spell that?
:smile:

Johnny is not allowed out until he learns to play right.

Johnny has already promised (in writing) to play right.

But we don't trust Johnny.

We know better than Johnny.

We will let you know when we feel its safe to let Johnny out to play
 
I'll check out the website again. Evidently I missed their schedule of events, code of conduct statement, source of income, list of donations, etc.

People are justifiably criticizing her for a decision they don't agree with. You could be accused of lambasting our viewpoint, as well.

FWIW, I think the discussion has been mostly civil, but obviously with a big faction that does not agree with her decision, it has triggered a lot of replies.

I am not lambasting anyone. I am trying to point out that this woman is trying to do good in the pool world. Because people are upset at the decision made, they are attacking her, her writing skills, her website, et cetera, et cetera. I think that is quite sad, and as such, I'm stating my opinion. If that's lambasting to you, then so be it, Steve.

And as far as websites go, the Str8-Shot website can give most pool websites the orange crush from the ones I have visited. Sheesh!

jam, how many kids will quit pool if this match happens in your estimation if in a worst case scenario, John and Danny act disrespectful?

Can you not weigh out the pros and cons of this? I think we all get it and you don't.

Read hang-the-9's post. He is the father of a pool youth.

That's all I'm going to say. :)
 
I am not lambasting anyone either, Jennie. Why are you using all of this negative imagery such as "lambasting", images of lions eating prey, and "attacking" for a large group of people who are voicing their disagreement with her decision?

That's awesome that your teaching your kid good behaviors.
I'm sure what he will see watching Danny and John play is mild compared to what he sees on tv or at school everyday.
 
What did you just say?

sorry, i've been singing & holding homage....

if you have need to CHANGE a contract, you can AMEND it, to suit new needs. and in order to do so, you either STRIKE said CLAUSE & both parties initial.
OR.
you ADD a NEW CLAUSE/AMENDMENT & both parties initial.
then it's legally binding & no BREECH.

PS - JAM, i caught that Scrabble faux-pas. don't tell Spider!

Because I'm a illustrative person when I write. That's what I do.

If people were voicing their disagreement, that is fine, but the manner in which they are voicing their disagreement -- criticizing her website, stating that she's ruining the careers of pro players -- I think it is in poor taste.

Look, you know that I am an action enthusiast to the nth degree.

I do believe, however, that pool needs a fresh contribution, someone to infuse some new blood, some innovative ideas, some money.

This organization sends supplies to our troops overseas for free, and that's not all they do. That is just one I am aware of.

Because of this one damn match, all the good that this organization is doing with charity events, sponsorship if juniors, amateurs, aspiring pros, and pros, just to name a few at the time of this writing, it seems like all the good goes out the window. Everyone wants to put down this brand-new organization because the organization doesn't want to see a player become unraveled in a match that they are associated with.
 
Obviously, I am in support of anything positive they are doing for the Juniors. My criticism of her decision in this case is distinct from my praise for their contributions to BEF.

Regarding the website, I'm trying to get information. I am a scientist. Don't confuse my analytical search for facts as criticism.

Is this a charitable organization or a for-profit business? If the former, they all must have mission statements.

An organization must have one or more qualifying exempt purposes in order to be eligible for 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status. The exempt purpose should be embodied in a mission statement, which may be found in an organization’s bylaws and/or its articles of incorporation.

She was nice enough to leave her phone number for anyone to call who had questions about the organization. When time allows, if these are burning questions that you want to have answered, maybe you can give her a ring and find out more.

I'm not sure whether she's a charitable organization or a for-profit business has anything to do with her stance on the John v. Danny match, but maybe if she can satisfy your curiosity about her company's legal business standing, that will take care of one concern. :smile:
